This will ensure that your card looks more striking on a mantelpiece and will mean that they are more likely to display it for longer. It can also mean that they are less likely to throw it away a few weeks afterwards – which unfortunately is the fate for most postcards sent.

Postcards printing also enables your postcards to be sentimental and nostalgic, and that means that when someone comes to look through their cards at a later date in the future yours will bring a smile to their face. It's a great way to send an image of something that your loved one might be too far away to see as well. Of course this is the usual use for postcards – and it means you can send someone the view from your hotel room that you took rather than just a generic view of the country to create that real 'wish you were here' gesture. At the same time though postcards printing can be used to 'show' people many other things.
